The Wigwam staff told me that their room rates for 2015 have not been published yet, but a “Casita” would probably run between $75.00 to $100.00 a day. Reservation for “individual rooms” can start to be made in September or October 2014.

If a group rate were set up, it would require at least ten rooms being reserved. Group rates and reservations can be established and made at any time. For the time being, I will leave it at the “individual reservation” method. If enough people contact me about a desire to go, I will then look into a group rate. The same being said, if any organized functions are desired. At the moment, I only know of two people who will be there (Frank and Suzy Q).

Now, many of you are probably wondering why this is being brought up so early.

It is just my nature to plan for things in advance.

I want to give everyone a “heads-up”.

Time is “flying by” and July 2015 will be here before you know it.

I will send more information about the Wigwam and the Phoenix area later.

Mike, Thanks! I think we could could all have a great time by getting together at least one time. We all have a huge connection. I think it would be a waist to not have this happen. I would love to see many of my Brent school friends also (no I did not go there, but I knew some from Saigon and Tehran). Frank

Yea Folks! I am serious about this thing! Once in awhile, I’ll think that why bother…no one really gives a “whatever”, but it would be nice to all who wish to get together only one more time! I will post when to get reservations…but remember, so far nothing is planned. Whether something happens depends upon you, not me!

I would be interested too…will try to send on to others who were there later and during the evacuation in February of 1965. I think it would be very fitting…Wish it were closer to the DC area, but I’ve never been to Arizona, so that sounds exciting!

Hi Marie..
I think you are the same Marie that hung out with my sister Mary Jacobs at ACS in Saigon. We are planning a trip to Saigon next spring. I’m sure Mary would love to reconnect with you..
